Insomniac Games announced today that they partnered with Blockade Entertainment and Rainmaker Entertainment to bring Ratchet & Clank to cinemas in 2015.

The movie will be penned by Insomniac‘s senior writer, T.J. Fixman and will be directed by Jericca Cleland. With Fixman writing the script Insomniac expects the humor and witty dialogue the games are known for to make it to the big screen. As for Rainmaker Entertainment’s history, they recently released the animated film, Escape from Planet Earth and it made $60 million at the box office.

Along with this news, Variety sort of brushed off the news that Blockade Entertainment are currently working on a direct to video CG animated film for Heavenly Sword. No other information can be found about the movie at this time. but hopefully we will get word on Nariko’s next adventure soon.

Who else is excited for a Ratchet & Clank movie? What other video game franchise do you want to see made into a movie? What franchise do you want Hollywood to stay away from? Sound off in the comments.

Just a nerd from the Windy City. I’m actually really bad at describing myself because I get all self-critical and self-conscious. Follow me on Twitter, @The1stMJC, to see my borderline insane rants on tv shows and other non important subjects. If I’m not tweeting I’m probably just watching Buffy or Firefly for the millionth time.
